While we mourn the passing of Uncle Leo,I too will always cherish the sweet childhood memories of my visits to Conshy to visit with Uncle Leo and Aunt Ann and Terry,John and Carol and their many visits to Frackville. I always thought it was pretty neat that Uncle Leo would read comic books like us kids.Glad I got to see him again,this past summer at St. Ann's picnic

Deepest sympathy to Terry,John, Carol and family on the loss of their dad and my Uncle Leo.
I have many happy memories from when I went to visit and when they came to Frackville.
I'm sure along with Aunt Ann, their son, that his sisters Sophie & Ginger and esp Grammy and Pop were waiting for him at the gate with open arms.
